About Bits & Beasts
Bits & Beasts is a game studio based in Zurich, Switzerland, consisting of Adrian Stutz and Florian Faller. The project Feist started already in 2008 and soon gained attention and critical praise for the dynamic gameplay and the visual style. In subsequent years, when popular platformers like Limbo took up silhouette-based game graphics, B&B focused on the initial core features of Feist to create a unique and savage survival experience.
